i think i had some of that in a viet place in cape coral florida, except it had a plastic cover on it. i wondered how they "did it." nope, after looking at the vinacafe pics on google images, that was not it. mine was in a clear plastic cup, without any logo. it was viet coffee and condensed milk with ice and a plastic cover *sealing* it. the cover was what puzzled me.

4 potatoes maybe 3 large garlic cloves 1 large onion 6 small leeks, or 4 large ones 10 cups of broth about a cup of cream (although I either use half & half or milk) Or, it maybe easier to just make two or three batches. Good luck!

puzzler, I think you're going to find that with all the pre-packaged mass market blends. Places like Penzey's and The Spice House offer some mixes salt-free, but i understand you don't want to deal with the shipping. That's why I suggest mixing it up on your own. None of the primary Greek herbs and spices are hard to find, and most of them most of us already have in our kitchens. Make it yourself and you can emphasize the...

Setting the table the day before is a good idea. I always find myself so busy the day of, that everybody arrives and usually the table is covered with kitchen prep!!! (My kitchen is small.) But I will try to do this next time, as it would take so much off my mind. What do you serve with your lavender ice cream?

Cost Plus World Market has lots of great bottles and baskets for this kind of thing, too.

Just to brag a little bit. We have that book personally inscribed to us and signed by her. I LOVE that!!!

Do you know that he likes Brussels sprouts and cauliflower? Many people don't (I pity them). And how new is new? Those cruciferous vegetables produce flatulence in most people; if you are on your best behavior, trying to hold back the tide is going to make for an unpleasant evening! Green beans, creamed spinach, or glazed carrots would be safer. I agree with mashed potato because brisket has such a nice gravy. IMO, key lime pie is more...

http://thespitefulchef.blogspot.com/2... This is a great cracker recipe and repurposes the use of a cookie press which makes it doubly genius.

Home made pot pies, pasta sauce, gravy, quiche, chili, macaroni & cheese, cooked chicken & stock for chix & dumplings, chicken soup, stir fries, chix salad, etc.; pizza dough can be used for pizza, foccacia, and calzones. Ham & bean soup, stroganoff, veggie casseroles, etc. These are more like helpers, but I like to keep a bag of sliced onions & peppers in the freezer to be used when I don't have...

Congratulations on your purchase. This recipe has a heavy cream base, rather than egg, milk and heavy cream, which is the base for most custard type ice cream. The heavy cream takes the place of the egg for richness and is easier to make than an egg-based custard; no worries about tempering in the egg and making scrambled custard. So, because this recipe calls for a heavy cream base, the egg is not necessary. You won't miss it. American...
